Five on Friday – Favorites

It’s my first Five on Friday for 2017!  This week I’m sharing some favorites to kick off the new year!

O N E – Possible Snow Day?!

You guuuuys, the weather people are saying that we have the possibility to get some snow Friday night into Saturday morning!!!!  Snow around these parts is such a rarity… we only get it once every few years or so.  And when I say snow, I mean like 1-2 inches of sleet-ish mess.  Haha.  1-2 inches is, however, enough to shut down the entire city as we are not equipped to handle it since it’s so uncommon here.  The last time it snowed, I was 8.5 months pregnant with Olivia and Jacob was Olivia’s age.  I just remember praying that my water didn’t break because we wouldn’t have been able to get to the hospital!  Here are some of my favorite pictures from that day.  It was so wonderful and exciting to see it through Jacob’s eyes!  And just look how tiny he was.  <3

P.S.  Look at my big ol' belly... it most definitely did not fit under that jacket anymore.  Lol.

T W O – 2016 Best Nine

I saw everyone doing these on Instagram again this year, so naturally I had to join in on the fun!  Apparently you guys all love fall and Christmas just as much as I do because every single one of these was taken between October and December!  Ladies after my own heart!

T H R E E – School Pictures

With all of the Christmas hullaballoo in December, I never had a chance to post one of my very favorites… the kids’ school pictures!  This is the one that will be in the yearbook for Jacob, and this is Olivia’s Christmas picture.  At her school they still do fall, Christmas, and spring pictures and, of course, I have to buy all of them.  <Insert eye roll here.>  Why do they always have to be so darn cute?!

F O U R – Snowflake Necklace

I’m still enjoying my anniversary gift from B.  I’ve barely taken it off since he gave it to me at the beginning of December.  And how appropriate it will be if it snows this weekend.  ;o)

F I V E – A Day Home

And finally, my very favorite thing for the week – I get to stay home with Jacob today!!!!  You may have seen my post on Instagram on Wednesday about having a bad day because I was going through withdrawals from being away from my babies after spending so much time with them during the holidays?  Well, since Jacob is still out of school this week, I had to take one more day and that day is today!  I think we’ll do some couch snuggling, Lego-building, and maybe go somewhere for breakfast or lunch.  I’m a happy happy  lady!

Here’s to snow in Georgia this weekend!  If you’re in snow country, send some snowy vibes our way!  Which reminds me, I probably need to go load up on bread, milk, and eggs since that’s what everyone else in the southeast is doing today!  Cheers!
